Zend Url View Helper not working with Regex Routes

I'm using Zend Framework 1.12 and have this route:

$router->addRoute('item_start',
    new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex(
            '(foo|bar|baz)',
            array(
                'module'        => 'default',
                'controller'    => 'item',
                'action'        => 'start'
            ),
            array(
                1 => 'area'
            ),
            '%s'
        )
);

Problem is, when I call '/foo' and use the Url Helper in the View, it doesn't give me any parameters:

$this->url(array("page"=>1));
// returns '/foo' (expected '/foo/page/1')

$this->url(array("page"=>1), "item_start", true);
// also returns '/foo'

Any idea how to get the page-parameter into the URL? I can't use the wildcard like in the standard route, can't I?

In addition to David's suggestions, you could change this route to use the standard route class, and then keep the wildcard option:

$router->addRoute('item_start',
    new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
            ':area/*',
            array(
                'module'        => 'default',
                'controller'    => 'item',
                'action'        => 'start'
            ),
            array(
                'area' => '(foo|bar|baz)' 
            )
        )
);

// in your view:
echo $this->url(array('area' => 'foo', 'page' => 1), 'item_start');

Your Regex route doesn't have a page parameter, so when the url view-helper ends up calling Route::assemble() with the parameters you feed it, it ignores your page value.

The two choices that come to mind are:

  1. Modify your regex to include a (probably optional with default value) page parameter
  2. Manage the page parameter outside of your route in the query string.
